Jason Todd..

[@The_Phantasm]

My favorite scene from this film is hands-down the scene with Jason and Joker at the diner. The way the music starts by giving the impression of a relaxing environment as it slowly descends into a more sinister track when Jason realizes who he is really sitting next to just masterfully fills you with emotion while at the same time knowing that only one of them was going to walk out of that door.

[@xanderkirk7872]

It definitely is the strongest scene to me. The smallness of the room and the attack from Jason is cool to see

[@CantBeJulius]

My favorite part of that scene is when joker realises it's Jason. He goes from sounding bored and a little depressed to having the biggest grin on his face.

[@albertthepeacock8020]

Mines is when Batman and Superman have a conversation in the diner really showing their human side. Batman opening up to Superman is criminally underrated and when Superman tells Batman he has a contingency plan to stop him if he goes over the edge in a calm confident tone is extremely powerful. It really shows the bond between the two without the writers pandering to the fanboys by making them fight.

[@thecastaways2]

I love Jason's story because it's one based off of real psychology and understanding of the concept of rebirth, and how that would realistically be a trauma that only adds to the experience of death. To be killed by a psychopath only to then be revived by the daughter of a different psychopath, the combination of the experience of regaining life and conciousness after losing it violently and brutaly, would sear into a person's mind so much that if Jason was a real person, he probably commit suicide because the memory and impact of both events would be too much to bare. The fact he continued on in life shows part of his mental, and probably neurological strength in some sense.

Okay, let's be real here. When Jason kills Joker in the diner, no jury in the world would convict him to prison. All he'd have to say (especially since Joker wipes away the paint to reveal his true appearance before dying, and I have no doubt there are CCTV cameras in there because you know, it's Gotham) is "I realized I was sitting next to the Joker. A man so cruel and dangerous, he's killed thousands for the sake of it. He looked at me and grinned like he's done before taking so many other lives before, and I was afraid for my own life" and any jury in Gotham would rule it as a case of self-defense.

[@wrylucifer]

4:50 Every identity he has here is something affiliated with him. Jason was originally suppose to come back as Hush, but the editors didn't like that and just made Clayface pose as him. In Countdown, Jason goes to a world were Batman killed his rouges gallery after his Jason's death and gives the main Jason the Red Robin suit, which he made for his for when he grew up or something like that.

[@ogladaczr.t.3168]

I'm not sure if you understood correctly. Or, if I didn't. In the Dinner, before the scene, Jason talks about the strength to let go, and later calls joker friend. It was probably not an accident they met there, but it looks like Jason was still terrified when he seen he hadn't changed. I believe it was just Jason's finally appearing mental strength that was snapped when he saw that Joker was still deranged, found all the meaning of Batman's life... meaningless, a psycho trying to be better than or to save psychos. I don't think Jason went obsessed, i believe he exactly made a choice, there wasn't a "without hesitation" moment. And it is only because of that, that shame later comes. When people spend a lot of time planing something, they fight off the shame even before the act. We are ashamed of things perceived as mistakes, so deliberate choices or fast decisions. Like in Crime and Punishment. (which btw i can respect but still don't like)

[@cobravlods5005]

One of the most tragic characters in comic history

[@Ri-XBlazer]

I'd have to say the Hush ending is not only one of the most intriguing but the character design probably has the most to tell visually. And My favorite ending is probably the most important and yet the most tragic in terms of choices- The one where Bruce literally dies to save Jason (and later on his soul), The path where he not only let's The Joker live (But seemingly and then later finally buries or some might even say fully confronts and moves on from his own pain, Using the same set of beliefs and morals to as he puts it Helps save a resurrected Bruce (Thanks to Talia) and more importantly his soul. Now that ending is the probably the most depressing as we get teased with a version of Jason who's not only overcome his own darkness thanks to Bruce but has also seen the truth he desprately spent so long trying to tell his "Son" about what it truly means when taking up the task of shining down a beam of light throughout Gotham but also becoming a beacon of the hope.. But that sad irony here is that that very person who never stopped believing in Jason is now himself lost- But I think there's sort of a beauty to that as now the Bat-family strives to work as a whole to do what they do best for Bruce sake, pulling him back from his own darkness. Not to mention I heard that Zor En Ar, those last words he heard his father say before that tragic moment is the alleyway (Very Tragic to know that moment is replaying in his head), but I guess in the comics it's the name of an alternate personality Bruce creates or creates for himself in case he ever went insane- (So basically a backup plan. If he ever got AL Gulle'd, meaning that this ending is the most hopefully if it's remotely taking from the comics.

I appreciate this for the multiple stories it tells... what I didn't care for was how short the stories are. I also felt the constant need to tie in some of the newer stories felt, idk, cheap? Or was there just because? My favorite of these has got to be the Two-Face ending both of them. Having Jason rescued by the kid in another world he fought against was kinda poetic (I don't like the bat-kid costume either) and Two-Face in a weird way embody both Harvey and Two-Face at the same time tearing Jason down and teaching him a lesson. Kinda shows that there is hope for both of them yet

I am really conflicted by the Death in the Family interactive movie. On one side, its interesting seeing a what-if like this that has more content than a usual what-if - on the other side, I think it's kinda backwards on the themes that it wanted to tell on ''Under the Red Hood''. The sequence where Jason is supposed to ''heal'' is precisely the one that... proves that no matter how much healing done he would still kill the Joker? That the trauma is bigger than any help he could get? Because that's also the most hopeful ending - he did kill the Joker, and after much happened, he DID overcome his trauma and raised Tim. One thing I liked about Under the Red Hood is that it did portray that the Code Batman follows didn't magically make everything good (like you talked about on the first Jason video, and something that happens on a LOT of Batman media), much on the contrary, it kinda proves Jason's point that Batman's methods don't really work (although the movie also doesn't agree with Jason's methods). In the Interactive movie... it doesn't really talks about that? It focuses much more on the point of healing from that trauma, but, like I said before... it also contradicts itself, because it shows that he didn't actually heal. Like you said, Batman argues that giving into hatred and revenge would make the pain never leave him... but it did. I don't know, it seemed to me that the morals and themes of the story were all over the place, even contradicting each other.

Jason Todd may be my favorite robin, although I really like Dick as well. I think I have more respect for Jason if only because of how long it really took to get here, every since they decided to bring him back Jason Todd has felt like a character they brought back without a single damn idea in their heads of what to do with him. Is he magic? Is he crazy? Is he a tentacle monster? It's taken a long time to navigate what probably was a rushed or half-baked decision and now we have Jason Todd as a strong character who stands in a solid place in the Bat-family, not as a parallel or in Bruce's shadow, but almost a dark reflection of one of the family getting too close to living across the line, and if there's any redemption if they do. I think its obvious Bruce loved Jason, but he genuinely thinks out of all the Robins, Jason's life is the one which probably would have been better had he just left him on the streets, there's so much guilt there. He's 'messed up' with the Robins before (Nightwing comes to mind) but Jason is a special case since he let Jason die and then let him come back as a monster.
